ART. 42] MINORS. 1069
and it shall not lie within the power of the parties, or any of them,
to dismiss the case or settle it; a minor, in such proceeding may be
removed from the custody of his parent, appointed guardian, or other
legal custodian; he may be committed to the care of any person, body
corporate or institution, upon such terms and for such period as the
court or judge may deem beneficial; if it be made to appear that such
course is demanded by the temporal or moral welfare of the minor, it
shall be the duty of the court or judge to commit him to the care or
custody of any charitable, reformatory or other institution incorporated
under the laws of this State subject to the discipline and regulations of
such institution, and to the further order and direction of the court
or judge; and any court or judge disposing of the custody of a minor
upon habeas corpus may assume and retain jurisdiction over such
minor in as ample a manner as a court of chancery, or judge of a
court of chancery upon bill or petition, and may pass such other and
further orders in relation to his care and custody as may be deemed
just and beneficial.
